Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding FanDuel OPT Eligible Jobs USA
Align your degree to FanDuel's technical roles
FanDuel's engineering, data science, and product teams consistently hire for roles that require a directly related degree field. Before applying, use O*NET to confirm your SOC code matches your degree discipline, which strengthens your STEM OPT eligibility for those positions.
Confirm FanDuel's E-Verify enrollment before accepting
STEM OPT's 24-month extension requires your employer to be enrolled in E-Verify. Verify FanDuel's enrollment status through E-Verify's employer search before signing an offer, so your extension timeline isn't disrupted after you've already accepted the role.
Target your application to data and engineering teams
FanDuel's fastest-growing hiring is in software engineering, data analytics, and quantitative roles tied to its platform and odds-setting operations. These teams have the clearest track record of retaining international talent through H-1B sponsorship after OPT, making them the highest-value targets for your application.
Research FanDuel's prevailing wage before negotiating
Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up wage levels for your target role and location before your offer discussion. FanDuel's compensation benchmarks in New York and New Jersey differ significantly, and knowing the DOL wage level for your SOC code gives you a grounded starting point.
Find FanDuel OPT roles using Migrate Mate
Search for FanDuel openings on Migrate Mate, which filters roles by employer OPT and H-1B filing history so you can identify positions where international students have historically been hired and retained through visa transitions, not just listed as eligible on a job board.
Start your OPT EAD application 90 days early
USCIS recommends filing your OPT EAD application up to 90 days before your program end date. A delayed EAD creates a gap between graduation and your FanDuel start date, and most employers, including FanDuel, cannot defer an offer indefinitely while you wait for authorization.
FanDuel OPT Eligibility: Frequently Asked Questions
Does FanDuel sponsor OPT visas?
FanDuel doesn't sponsor OPT directly. OPT is work authorization granted by USCIS to F-1 students, not a visa employers file. What FanDuel does is hire students who already hold an OPT EAD. For STEM OPT extensions, FanDuel must be enrolled in E-Verify, which enables the 24-month extension through USCIS.
Which roles at FanDuel are most accessible for OPT students?
Software engineering, data science, product management, and quantitative analysis roles are the most accessible for OPT students at FanDuel. These positions align with STEM-designated degree fields, making STEM OPT extension eligibility more straightforward. Finance and business operations roles are also hiring but may offer fewer STEM OPT pathways depending on your degree field.
How do I confirm FanDuel will support my STEM OPT extension?
Ask your recruiter or HR contact whether FanDuel is enrolled in E-Verify before accepting an offer. STEM OPT requires employer E-Verify participation, and you'll need FanDuel to sign your I-983 Training Plan. Confirming this before your offer stage prevents complications once your initial OPT period approaches its end date.
What is the typical timeline for OPT students transitioning to H-1B at FanDuel?
If you start at FanDuel on OPT and FanDuel sponsors your H-1B, the process typically begins in the year before the April registration window. USCIS selects H-1B registrations by lottery in March, with a October 1 start date if selected. STEM OPT's 24-month extension provides a critical buffer if you aren't selected in the first lottery cycle.
How do I find open OPT-friendly roles at FanDuel?
Use Migrate Mate to search FanDuel's open positions filtered by visa sponsorship history. This shows you which teams and role types have a track record of hiring and retaining international students, so you're targeting positions where OPT-to-H-1B transitions have actually happened rather than relying on generic job board listings that don't surface sponsorship patterns.
How does FanDuel hire OPT students?
OPT is work authorization granted directly to F-1 students after graduation — no employer petition is required. FanDuel can hire OPT students as soon as their EAD card is approved. STEM degree holders can extend OPT by 24 months when their employer is enrolled in E-Verify. Most companies that hire OPT students also support the transition to H-1B when the student's OPT period is ending. Check FanDuel's individual postings on Migrate Mate to confirm OPT acceptance per role.
